    I've been using Elixirs for a long time now. They just can not be beaten on sound, or Longevity. Not to mention Best Buy has the best price.

    The feel and tone of these stings is enough, but the fact they seem to last forever is a great bonus.

    Great price for your purchase. I use these on all my guitars and they work incredible well. They do not show wear easily until the end of their life. I have never had an issue with them popping off my guitar. The ease to put these strings on my guitar is extremely simple and I have never had an issue with these guitar strings. Go try them out!

    These strings cost a little more than others but they last me 4 times as long as standard acoustic strings. They sound bright and loud. Feel good to play and are easy on the fingers.

    I have played guitar professionally for over 30 years, and this is the only acoustic string I use. They sound fantastic, and the quality tone will last 2-3 times longer than that of non-coated strings. The original POLYWEB coating is my personal favorite. I utilize them on all my acoustics (Gibson and Taylor).

    Elixir strings, in my opinion, are the best sound quality for acoustic guitars. If you've never used these strings, you will instantly notice the incredibly vibrant sound resonating from your guitar.

    I have to use Elixirs due to my oily hands. If I use standard strings, they are dead within a few days use. My hands also stop sliding over them and catch very bad. Elixirs solve all these problems. I can use a set for well over a month without any friction at all. I also play a Taylor and they recommend Elixir's.

    Elixirs are easier on the fingers, and maintain tone longer than others I've used. Worth the extra money for a guitar that's used often.

    I received a gift card to best buy for my birthday. And since my local store no longer carries musical gear. I figured I'd go online and order a new pedal or something like that at a discount. Only to find out that none of the items can actually be shipped to Alaska. That was very very annoying. So I had to spend hours looking for a product that I could actually use, and that was available to me. So I figured I'd try the polywebs I've heard a bit about over the years. Basically just regular old strings that get this funky frayed look wherever you play them due to the coating wearing away. Although I will say they still sound the same after a couple weeks of playing on one set.

    These are Polyweb, Elixers , These are the Number one logest lasting Stings out there and I have played for over 30 years and 13 Guitars. There are also Nanoweb by Elixer but they dont last as long, But they are still better then the non-coated strings. I alwasy try to buy as many as I can if I find them in the Store.
